On the plus side, Hilary actually looks good here. Which is good in the sense that I really don't want to see any of the Republican bids anywhere close to a winning percentage, and Hilary is the only really viable option to stop that.

The Chairperson of my local county's Democratic Party messaged me today and asked me to get involved in their meetings at the college. I'll have to negotiate a few hours at work each month, but I want to help get progressive people elected in our community.

CNN tried to can Bernie during the debates.

CNN:
Describes Hillary as "front runner" before debate even began.
Describes Bernie as the "unexpected threat".

Afterwards they deleted comments supporting him off their website.

The United States media is bought and sold.

Idk I'm just watching the first Democratic debate. Election is just under a year from now.

Clinton - Wife of former President (and one of the most popular Democratic presidents to-date) Bill Clinton, experienced politician in her own right. Open flip-flopper but lifetime politician who knows the game and knows how to get agendas through even if they aren't as liberal as those of us on the left would like

Sanders - Senator of Vermont, possibly the most liberal state in the US - pretty much only elects independents because they're too socialist for the Democratic party to swallow. As such, card-carrying commie. Pretty decent dude, potentially racist - but hey, he's like 80, so he's doing well for his generation - but totally unelectable because too many people in this country are still uncomfortable with the words "socialism" and "communist"

The rest are all shmucks no one cares about.

I'll do a write-up about Republicans when the next Republican debate happens.

If Hillary is nominated, I will vote Green Party again.

Explain why you think he is racist.

The only time they cut to the audience was when they were cheering Hillary on.

You would willingly throw away a vote for a centrist with left-leaning ideas instead of supporting them against any of the complete lunatics running for the Republican party?

I mean, really.

Any of them.

Pick one.

I don't believe there is such a thing as a throw-away vote. I do believe there are people who throw away their ethics at the booth.
